Beautiful Brides

Artist Standards Assessment

Instructions for Artists

​

This is an open-manual assessment. You are encouraged—and expected—to reference both the Beautiful Brides Artist Manual and the Beautiful Brides Artist Operations Guide while completing it.

​

The purpose of this assessment is not to test your memory. It is to ensure that every Beautiful Brides artist has reviewed our standards, understands our expectations and knows where to find important information when questions arise.

​

Please take your time and refer to both manuals as needed. Some questions are scenario-based and require you to apply the policies and procedures you have reviewed.

A score of 80% or higher (8 out of 10 questions) is required to successfully complete the assessment.
